Can Durango residents reserve parking on their streets? I saw this sign in the Riverview neighborhood near a trailhead for access to the infamous “Beach,” the area along the Animas River across from Durango High School. It’s a favorite location to day-drink, smoke, party and moon the train. Personally, I think all iconic city recreation areas should have fair access for everyone.

“Reserved” parking on a public street? The city didn’t reserve judgment on this issue.
